STONE-DRESSING MACHINE.

Application filed February 28, 1910.

T 0 all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, YVILBER H. VAN SIGKEL, a citizen of the United States, residing at Philadelphia, county of Philadelphia, and State of Pennsylvania, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Stone-Dressing Machines, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, which form a part of this specification.

My invention has for its object to provide a portable stone dressing machine which is of simple construction and effective in operation.

Generally speaking, I provide a construction whereby the standard is supported from a beam or upright which is portably mounted, the standard being so supported that it is rotatable with respect to said portable upright.

I will first describe the embodiment of my invention illustrated in the accompanying drawings and then point out the invention in the claims.

In the drawings: Figure 1 is a sectional elevation of an embodiment of my improved machine. Fig. 2 is a sectional elevation of a portion of the machine showing another embodiment of my invention. Fig. 3 is a view similar to Fig. 2 showing a third embodiment of my invention. Fig. f is a section on the line l-4L, Fig. 1, only the upright, standard and frame being shown. Fig. 5 is a detail view showing sheaves 0.

a is the upright mounted upon the base Z) supported upon wheels 0.

(Z is the standard, as shown, rectangular. In the construction shown in Fig. 1 the upper portion of this standard has the projecting sleeve 0 in the form of a cap, surrounding and resting on the top of upright a with the interposed ball bearing 7.

g is a sleeve projecting from the lower portion of the standard and surrounding the upright a.

In Fig. 2 there is a sleeve 72, projecting from the upper portion of the standard and surrounding the upright and from the lower portion of the standard projects a sleeve r surrounding the upright and resting on the base 2'.

In Fig. 8 I use the construction of Fig. 1 for connecting the upper portion of the standard and upright, and the sleeve resting Specification of Letters Patent.

Serial No. 546,469.

11 3011 the base as in Fi 2 for connectin the lower portion of the standard with the up right.

j is a frame extending horizontally from the standard cl and mounted thereon so as to be adapted to be moved vertically. Preferably the movement of the frame on the standard should be limited to a vertical movement. To accomplish this I can use a rectangular standard, and form that portion of the frame 7', which is mounted on said standard (Z, rectangular in shape (see Fig. 4E).

70 is a carriage or trolley having the wheels Z traveling on the top of the frame j. The stone dressing tool at is mounted on this carriage 7c. Mounted on the standard (l are two sheaves 0, one on each side of the standard (Z. A cable or cord 72 has one end secured to the outer end or frame 7', and this cable passes up over one of the sheaves 0, then around the sheave 0, then back again over the other of the sheaves 0, and the other end of this cable or cord is secured to the drum g upon the frame j. With this construction, the standard carrying the tool frame j is rotatably mounted and supported upon a portable upri ht which enables the position of the machine, as a whole, to be readily changed and, at the same time, in the different positions, to rotate the standard and with it the tool carrying frame.

Having now fully described my invention, what I claim and desire to protect by Letters Patent is 1. In combination, a standard, a projecting carriage carrying frame mounted upon said standard so as to be movable vertically, a portable upright, said standard being rotatably mounted and sleeved upon said up right.

2. In combination, a rectangular standard, a projecting carriage carrying frame mounted upon said standard so as to be movable vertically, a portable upright, said standard being rotatably mounted and sleeved upon said upright.

3. In combination, a standard, a projecting carriage carrying frame mounted upon said standard so as to be movable vertically, a portable upright, said standard being rotatably mounted and sleeved at both ends.

upon said upright.

I. In combmation a standard, a pro ect ing carriage carrying frame mounted upon said standard so as to be movable vertically, a portable upright, said standard being ro--- tatably mounted and sleeved atboth ends upon said upright, and supported at one end.

5. In combination, a standard, a projecting carriage carrying frame mounted upon said standard so as to be movable vertically, a portable upright, said standard being rotatably mounted and sleeved at both ends upon said upright and supported at both ends.

(3. In combination, a standard, a project-- ing carriage carrying frame mounted upon said standard so as to be movable vertically, a portable upright, said standard being rotatably mounted and sleeved at both ends upon said upright and supported at one end upon said upright and at the other end upon the base.

'7. In combination, a standard, a projecting carriage carrying frame mounted upon said standard so as to be movable vertically, a portable upright, said standard being rotatably mounted and sleeved at both ends upon said upright and supported at one end upon the upright.

8. In combination, a standard, a projecting carriage carrying frame mounted upon said standard so as to be movable vertically, a portable upright, said standard being rotatably mounted and sleeved at both ends upon said upright and supported at one end upon the base.

9. In combination, a standard, a pro ecting carriage carrying frame mounted upon said standard so as to be movable vertically, a portable upright, a sleeve projecting from the lower portion of said standard and surrounding said upright, a sleeve projecting from the upper portion of said standard and surrounding said upright.

10. In combination, a standard, a. projecting carriage carrying frame mounted upon said standard so as to be movable vertically, a portable upright, a sleeve projecting from the lower portion of said standard and surrounding said upright, a sleeve projecting from the upper portion of said standard and surrounding said upright, one of said sleeves being supported upon said upright.

11. In combination, a standard, a projecting carriage carrying frame mounted upon said standard so as to be movable vertically, a portable upright having a base, a sleeve projecting from the lower portion of said standard and surrounding said upright, a sleeve projecting from the upper portion of said standard and surrounding said upright, one of said sleeves being supported upon said upright and the other sleeve upon the base.

In testimony of which invention, I have hereunto set my hand, at Philadelphia, on 1 this 23rd day of February, 1910.
